@Pete *****

good luck Pete, I would open the mail account online before going down it’ll be one less step while your in Florida.

Hi Pete

We are in process of changing over to. Florida address using Saint Brendan’s Isle mail service. They have different pay plans pick which works best for you. Before we leave we will drive down there and get a Fl license and register to vote there. Figured it’s on east coast and works best for us when we travel back to states.

@Bunny ****

I totally agree Bunny. I refer to the 3000 excluding rent just for spending food and going out

@John **********

hi John I’m planning on applying for the Non O visa before we leave so I can open a bank account when we get there. I have another friend that is from NH but worked in Boston and retired to Hua Hin a year ago and he is loving it

We are moving to Thailand in few months and I have been comparing cost of living where we currently live Boston and the cost of living in the region we are moving to. It basically said living on $3k a month there is like living on $9k here not sure how accurate but definitely more bang for the buck there but some areas there cost of living is higher than isaan

thanks Laetitia you have been very helpful in pointing me in the right direction.

@Lynnette ******

thanks Lynnette I’ll go that way with the visa.

@Brandon ***********

thanks very much

Good luck on your new chapter of life. I have been exploring all the visas for a Thai move we are making in 23 months and counting.
